1. W：Scientists say rest is one of the most important things a human brain needs. Do you know you will have more creative ideas if you are well-rested?

W：Maybe that’s because your brain is overloaded.
Q: What do scientists say about rest?
2. M：I’ve had it with Tim! I think I’m going to quit! He’s all nice and friendly to my face. But the second I turn around he stabs me in the back!
W：You know I had a worker like that once. She was always taking credit for my ideas. After a while I learned to document my work very clearly so the boss knew 100% that this was my work.
M：Yeah! That’s a good idea. I should keep a better record of my correspondence with the clients, so if necessary I can prove it was my effort.
Q: How did the woman cope with the problem she met?
3. M：Well, I started learning Chinese a long time ago. First I learned a little bit when I was in college. But I probably picked up most of it when I was overseas in Beijing.

W: Of course, I know the Lakers, it’s a great team.
Q: How does the head coach of Lakers use The Art of War according to the man?
5.W: Traffic in New York can be a nightmare during rush hours. It’s bumper-to-bumper everywhere in the city.
M: Doesn’t the subway service get really backed up too? I’ve heard there’re lots of delays.
W: Yeah, the subway can run late sometimes too, but it’s still more dependable than the bus.
M: Yeah, the subway is probably a good idea, but I hate being squeezed into those smelly coaches with all those strangers.
Q: How is the subway service in New York according to the man?
